FIG. 6. Carrier concentrations and mobilities (holes) in boron-doped nanocrystalline diamond thin-film electrodes as a function of the B2H6 concentration added to the source gas mixture. The measurements were made in a van der Pauw geometry with Ti contacts by Dr. Toshihiro Ando at NIMS. The limit of the temperature measurements was approximately 500 K. 

Figure 11 shows cyclic voltammetric i-E curves for (A) Fe(CN)e ", (B) Ru(NH3)e (C) IrCl6 / (D) methyl viologen (MV ) in 1 M KCl, and (E) 4-tert-butylcatechol, and (F) Fe in 0.1 M HCIO4 at a boron-doped nanocrystalline diamond thin film electrode. The potential scan rate (v) was 0.1 V/s. The Ep for these redox systems ranges from...

FIG. 23. Transmission spectra for different materials in the (A) UV/Vis and (B) IR regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The electrodes in (A) are (1) a thin film of ITO on quartz, (2) a thin film of boron-doped nanocrystalline diamond on quartz, (3) a thin film of mechanically polished and boron-doped diamond on an optically pure, white diamond substrate, and (4) a free-standing, boron-doped, and mechanically polished diamond disc. The electrodes in (B) are (5) an optically pure and mechanically polished white diamond disc, (6) an undoped and polished (both sides) Si substrate, and (7 and 8) moderately and heavily boron-doped microcrystalline diamond thin films deposited on the undoped Si.
